Little Learners in Queens!

So much has been happening at PS 201 & IS 237 in Queens!

The students at IS 237 have been busy putting together outfits, learning how to stick to a routine in the evening and in the morning, and have expressed their fashion senses through song and personal reflection. Justin, Jannat, Samantha, and Araceli recently were hard at work making two different outfits with Miss Shawna (music therapist): dressy and casual! These students are well on their way to becoming “fashionistas” themselves!

In Mrs. Agati’s classroom at PS 201, Shalim, Charlie, Myesha, and Destiny have been hard at work learning how to make conversation with friends, how to continue a conversation, how to politely interrupt a conversation, and how to make a good impression. In this picture, you’ll see Shalim and Charlie shaking hands while singing along to a song used each week to start off the class, “Good Impressions”.

In Mrs. Fiske’s class at PS 201, all of the students have been working REALLY HARD at zipping and buttoning! They practice zipping on their jackets, lunchboxes, and vests, and have also practiced buttoning on jackets and sweaters. They’re really getting the hang of it now! They have also been hard at work decorating their vests that Art Beyond Sight has provided for them to practice their skills with jewels, stickers, and flowers. Here’s Dean hard at work buttoning, and happy that he completed this task!

Can’t wait to see how well all of these students will progress – they’re surely making a ‘good impression’ on all of us!!
